Nicolas Cellier uploaded a new version of Kernel to project The Trunk:
http://source.squeak.org/trunk/Kernel-nice.487.mcz

==================== Summary ====================

Name: Kernel-nice.487
Author: nice
Time: 2 September 2010, 9:42:36.971 pm
UUID: 283f7f22-eafa-42f9-a04d-6919febb4471
Ancestors: Kernel-dtl.486

provide a modular inversion much faster than the binary extended euclidean algorithm found in DigitalSignatureAlgorithm.

As raisedTo:modulo: belongs to Integer, reciprocalModulo: belongs to Integer too. These algorithms have value outside DSA.

+ 	"Answer an integer x such that (self * x) \\ n = 1, x > 0, x < n.
+ 	Raise an error if there is no such integer.
+ 	The algorithm is a non extended euclidean modular inversion called NINV.
